Lord of Hyranza

Suldak did not expect so many merchants to come to the town during this period of time. He walked to the warehouse gate of the city defense brigade and stared at these merchants on the field.

When everyone saw Suldak, the voices of talking and laughing became much quieter.

Suldak stood at the warehouse door and asked the city guards to push open the warehouse door. The inside was almost full of low-level Warcraft leather, and a large wooden box was full of magic cores.

The merchants whispered...

Everyone knows that the garrisons have hunted a large number of monsters recently, but they did not expect such a large number.

Suldak raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said:

"I believe that many people present today are very concerned about the results of our garrison on the city wall, and also want to know how many monsters we have hunted before. Most of the results these days are in this warehouse."

"I think there will be more in the follow-up, but almost all of them are magic materials from ghost-patterned soldiers...every day, I think it will continue until the end of the beast tide."

"It is not difficult to obtain these monster materials. Whoever has arrows, kerosene, refined steel ingots, flax threads, feathers, finished arrow shafts, and a series of military supplies can be transported to Dodan Town. The merchants who sell these military supplies can get these magic materials at a price that is [-]% lower than the market price."

"Sorry, gold coins and magic crystals are temporarily unavailable for these Warcraft materials in Dodan Town."

Suldak glanced at Selena and said, "I still have to hold a meeting, and you are in charge here."

After speaking, he took several squadron leaders of the cavalry battalion, quickly left the city defense brigade, and returned to the garrison camp.

As soon as Suldak left, the merchants immediately became imposing.

"Where are we going to find military supplies at this time?" A businessman in the crowd shouted loudly.

In addition, a businessman held up the money bag in his hand, shook the money bag in his hand, and protested to Selina: "Gold coins are the trading currency circulated in the Grimm Empire, so bartering like this is a violation of the Grimm Empire's laws." .”

"We do not accept Lord Commander's proposal."

"Yes, we can't accept it anyway!"

The businessmen at the scene expressed that they would not accept such a transaction, and their voices were very neat.

Selena has been standing in front of the warehouse door, silent.

She quietly listened to the protests from the merchants, and asked the warehouse management to lock the warehouse door, and then said:

"Since this is the case, we won't force you. If you come to me next time, you won't get these magic materials at this preferential price, but at a price [-]% lower than the market price."

After she finished speaking, she didn't even look at these merchants, and said lightly:

"You guys are thinking about it..."

After speaking, he turned and left.

……

When Selena returned to the military camp, she also had a lot of affairs to deal with. The materials she had recently obtained and the materials shipped by the logistics department had already consumed a lot of materials every day, and all the accounts were very chaotic.

She wanted to sort out these accounts at the front, so she didn't even go to the city wall to take a look.

Several clerks gathered around, constantly reporting some data to Selena.

Selena just sat down at the desk in the wooden house, ready to drink a cup of hot tea and take a breath...

As soon as she reached out to pick up the steaming teacup, she saw the clerk knocking on the door. Selina put down the teacup and looked at the clerk.

The clerk immediately stood up straight and reported to Selina:

"Ms. Selena, a businessman named Hoover wants to talk to you in private..."

Selena said calmly, "Please come in!"

The clerk hurried out.

Not long after, a businessman with a big belly walked in. His expression was a bit wretched, and he wanted to force a smile, but unfortunately he smiled reluctantly.

"Ms. Selena, I want to buy some second-level Warcraft leather. I happen to have some refined steel ingots..."

Selina shook her head and said, "Stainless steel ingots cannot be exchanged for second-level Warcraft leather. If you want this kind of high-grade leather, you have to get fire oil."

"Then what can I get?" Hoover asked, wiping his forehead.

"Elementary monster leather and magic crystals are fine..." Selina said to the merchant Hoover.

Hoover was opposite Selena, put a note on the table, and said with some humility: "Then I want the primary Warcraft leather, which can be traded tonight, but you must keep it a secret for me, I don't want them knowing 'I broke my agreement with them'."

"Understood, the transaction will be in front of the warehouse of the City Defense Brigade before dawn tomorrow morning!" Selina said to Hoover.

Businessman Hoover took off his hat and saluted Selena, revealing his bald and slightly funny head...

As soon as the businessman Hoover left, another businessman came to visit.

They had sworn before that they would never trade with the garrison camp, but they came to them one after another, which made Selena a little overwhelmed.

However, it was the Dodan Town Trading Firm that moved the fastest.

Because they originally stocked some military supplies in the warehouse of their trading firm, but now they are just taking them out for trading. Naturally, they quickly discussed the trading list with Selena.

By the time Selena finished her work, it was completely dark.

Chapter 761 Moonlight in Dodan Town

A crescent moon hangs obliquely in the night sky.

The night sky is very clean, there are no clouds to cover it, only a few stars are sparsely dotted in the night sky.

The fire on the north wall has not been extinguished yet. Thousands of ghost-striped red ants are kept out of the city by the fire. There are still a large number of ghost-striped worker ants flocking to the stone walls on both sides of the city wall. These worker ants were shot and killed by the city guards. , most of the corpses fell outside the city, and the corpses of many ghost pattern worker ants gathered in piles.

After the city defense guards killed some ghost-striped worker ants that rushed to the top of the city, the corpses would also be thrown into the fire wall outside the city. , after squeezing out the grease, it becomes a new fuel and becomes a part of the firewall.

The guards on the city wall are fighting bravely, but the night in the town is very quiet.

There was soft light in the closets of the shops facing the street, and without the support of the cavalry from the garrison camp and the city guards, the tavern in the town looked very deserted.

The tavern owner was sitting in the guardrail outside the bar, holding a glass of ale and looking at the north city wall. He was drunk and muttering something to himself.

Two night watchmen came from the east of the town with lanterns, and lit the street lamps on the main street along the way.

Opposite the tavern is a leather shop. Although this leather shop is still open, it does not accept any new orders, because the owner of the leather shop and all the shop assistants go to the military camp as helpers, where hundreds of fire wolf cards are peeled every day. Leather, and some high-level Warcraft leather, so that the owner of the leather shop has no time to come to the tavern for a drink recently.

Both the tavern and the leather shop are located at the busiest crossroads in the town. There is also a very lively bakery in the other corner of the town. Residents line up to buy bread every afternoon.

Every morning, a temporary free market will be formed at the intersection.

Before ten o'clock in the morning, the market will automatically disperse.

At the center of the intersection is a circular flower bed, and a sculpture stands in the center of the flower bed. It is said that the sculpture is engraved with the hard work of the original town builders.

……

Nika was wearing a floral dress, standing on the concrete steps of the round flower bed at the crossroads.

She had a money bag slung across her body, and the bag was heavily filled with copper coins. From time to time, she looked around and looked at the children coming out of the surrounding alleys.

Two aboriginal children hurried out from an alley, holding a bundle of wooden sticks in their arms, and ran to Nika in no particular order.

Their thin chests heaved violently, their foreheads were covered with sweat, and their bronzed arms held a bundle of wooden sticks, and handed them to Nika at the same time.

"Come one by one, as I said before, line up!"

Even if there are only two people, Nika also requires these aboriginal children to obey the order.

In the past few days, he has traveled all over the small alleys of the slums in the small town, and established some prestige in the hearts of the aboriginal children. After she took a bundle of arrow shafts and unwrapped the rope, she took out a checker and checked the arrows one by one. pole.

These arrow shafts are all made of some hard miscellaneous wood in the woods outside the town. The texture is very hard, and they are heavy in the hand.

She threw out an arrow shaft that couldn't fit into the slot of the checking tool, frowned and said:

"This one is unqualified. It's too thick. You can cut it again. It should be as thick as the one in my hand."

The aboriginal boy blushed slightly and nodded repeatedly.

After picking two, I picked out another bent one.

This time she raised her delicate eyebrows, and said somewhat unceremoniously:

"This one is a bit bent. I said, did you just take the branches you got off the tree and use them to make up the number?"

"What I need is a standard arrow shaft, and each one must be exactly the same."

"Not this kind of fire stick that is only suitable for burning fire."

As she spoke, she forcefully threw the curved arrow shaft on the steps under her feet, and asked questioningly:

"Isn't your father a hunter? Have you ever hunted with him? . . . hunted? Are you fooling me with these sticks? Isn't making arrows a basic skill of a hunter?"

A series of questions left the aboriginal child speechless.

The companion next to him saw Nika's harsh eyes, and even wanted to flinch on the spot.

She is meticulous in her work, holding the gage in her hand, each arrow shaft should be the thickness of a small finger, uniform in thickness and straight, and the fingers should be placed in the center of the shaft, the shaft must be in a balanced state, and the shaft must be ground very smooth.

Some that are not cut up to standard will be thrown under the feet as firewood.

Only those straight and thin hard wooden poles will be put into the box by Nika.

……

At the very beginning, Nika saw that the local aboriginal children were reluctant to buy cheap bread at the bakery in the town.

She felt that it was likely that the aboriginal children did not know that there was such a bakery in the town.

So, during that time, she almost traveled all over the slums, just to let the aborigines know that the bakery in the small town is so cheap!

She hopes that the aboriginal children in the town can eat whole wheat bread and never go hungry again.

But then she realized that things seemed to be a bit too simple.

Although the price of whole wheat bread is quite low, these aboriginal children in the town are still looking at the bakery every day, just like wandering beggars, waiting for the rich to come out of the bakery, and to be able to get out of the paper bag. Break off a piece of alms to them.

Sometimes those people, like feeding stray dogs, even threw the broken bread on the ground, watching several children scrambling for it at the same time, which made the female companions around them laugh.

Many rich people in the town regard this behavior as a kind of charity, thinking that it is a kind of care for the plane world from the civilized world.

The undisguised banter on their faces is like the jack of spades.

After Nika learned about the situation, he realized that everyone was hungry because they had no money at all, not even two copper coins in their hands.

These days Nika has been thinking about how to change the lives of the local aborigines.

She asked Selena, who has been very busy every day, for advice. Selena smiled and pointed to her chest, and said to her: "The only ones who can change their lives are themselves."

"First of all, we must talk about change again." She pointed to her head again.

Nika felt that what Selena said meant to let the aborigines find their own opportunities...

……

Hearing that there was a shortage of arrow shafts in the armament warehouse in the town, Nika felt that this was a good opportunity, so she planned to let the aboriginal children sharpen the arrow shafts. She was willing to buy these hard miscellaneous woods at the price of one copper plate for every two arrow shafts. arrow shaft.

The materials for making arrow shafts can be found everywhere in the forest at the foot of the mountain outside the town. Aboriginal children do not need to spend a penny, they only need a sharp hatchet.

Many children from Aboriginal families, their parents were hunters who were good at making hardwood bows and arrows.

Based on what they have learned and seen, it shouldn't be difficult for them to sharpen the arrow shaft.

However, she has some strict requirements for such arrow shafts, and each one must be made very finely.

As long as you can cut out four qualified arrow shafts in one day, you can get two copper plates and a complete whole wheat bread.

Nika did not hand over the 36 copper coins to the two aboriginal children. She was worried that they would buy other things after getting the copper coins. She took the two aboriginal children across the street to the door of the bakery.

The bakers here are busy every day until very late, and the bread consumed by the whole town every day needs to be calculated by bags of wheat flour.

The waiter in the bakery knew Nika and knew that she lived with Ms. Selena. They probably thought she was Ms. Selena's maid, so they respected her very much.

Nika took out a handful of copper coins and exchanged them for two sacks of whole wheat bread, which were obtained by two aboriginal children.

When they saw that they had earned so much bread, their eyes widened, and the two children cheered and hugged each other.

Nika pulled them by their ears, dragged them out of the bakery, and said viciously to the two children who were holding cloth sacks with intoxicated faces: "Tomorrow you will ask more people to sharpen arrow shafts for me...I want All the friends you know come to sharpen my arrow shafts! I will still be trading here tomorrow night..."

"Understood, see you tomorrow night! Nika."

The aboriginal children carry cloth bags, and they can't find them when they get into the alley.

……

At night, in Selena's rented room.

Signa was sitting next to the fireplace in the kitchen, holding a wooden spoon in her hand and constantly stirring the thick soup in the iron pot. Dozens of wontons wrapped in dough were rolling in the boiling soup pot...

Suldak doesn't like the kind of porridge that smells like wheat.
